40s - first week of Dec

Good Morning,

My day started with DH getting a phone call that his uncle passed away so not a great way to start. Tonite for me will be CLX Lean Phase 2 and standing abs. I think the dizziness is gone but I am not going to push it.

Mary-I wish I could christmas shop but until some money comes in its not going to happen. I will have to look into that book.

Ronne-BM2 cardio is to confusing for me I have tried it several times but it just doesn't click.
 
I feel like I get more gains by doing high weights so I did 4DS UB PM. Going out to dinner tonight with DH and BFF. I love, love, love, not working and just puttering around the house. Slept in late, finally worked out (nice not feeling rushed), just showered and did my hair, again it's so nice not to rush around to do things. Will sew a bit before we head out to dinner (and happy hour....martinis!) I'm questioning my sanity sewing together 1.25" squares for a checkerboard border on this quilt.

Ronne, I guess I didn't know what w/o you were referring to....I think I had a senior moment! I have never done TF and I never thought TurboBarre (I don't do that one either), I guess I was thinking of TTM.

Roxie, I hate how early it gets dark! I'm so sorry to hear of your DH's uncle.

Mary, Are you finding bargain paperbacks or something? Are you still not converted to the e-reader? I'm reading a book called Consequences , by Aleatha Romig, it's a bit 50 shades of grey like but not explicit like that. It's had good reviews in my book group, it's entertaining me, isn't that why we read? I guess I'm a scrooge and don't do Christmas shopping (remember my kids are older). I did happen to buy a Dyson for DS23 and DIL, it gave me joy to do so....that's the kind of gifts I like to give....those that aren't expected and random :)

Waves to all the workout skippers :)

lol Roxie....BBB had them at 25% off and I knew the kids were wanting one (dog hair), guess that's their payment for lending me their dog when I want dog company which in turn keeps me from getting a dog, somehow I think that would be much more expensive overall. I did tell them, Happy Birthday, Merry Christmas, Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas :)
 
Good evening,
Tonight i had fettucine---the dish is called heartburn with chicken. 2 martinis - raspberry/lemonade and a coffee/chocolate and a choc dessert.....I only ate 1/2 of the food but I had all of the martinis! Had a nice nice with BFF and DH paid the bill :) Oh wait, I thought this was my food group, not my workout group :) lols
 
Hello

Mary - did you get any Christmas shopping done?

Lisa - DH bought me a Kindle a few months ago and I haven't really taken to it. I use it occasionally - it was good for holidays but I do still prefer books.

Did Cardio Kicks - had a very quiet work day so added on the ball segment from Stretch Max. Really enjoyed that. It was just what my body needed. Ticked another couple of presents off my list. Nearly there now!!
 
Hi girls! Today did disc 14 from STS, love those legs! Lisa, I still like books, holding them, turning the page, just something about it! I know! I'm weird! Ronne, so far each child has a present! One being the operative word! Sounds like a perfect day you are having. Roxie, sorry about DH's uncle. Is the funeral this week? How's work? Hi Murphy & Jody! Lots of running this afternoon, I better start! Have a good evening, Mary
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did KCM's KBXing and Fitness Blenders Standing Crunchless Abs.

Ronne-good job with your workout.

Mary-the funeral is Saturday morning and work is going fine I am cleaning out the file cabinets.
 
I did 4DS LB PM, not in a chatty, happy mood, no reason really, just a big let down back at work after a nice 2 days off. The morale is SO low at work and it is just depressing. Company (not mine since I'm a contractor) is now making big changes to their 401K plan so the employee are fed up, the contractors are fed up from all the furlough days, it just sucks. Sorry for lack of personals, going to bed and hoping for a better day tomorrow.
 
Hi Ladies

Mary - well, one is a start!! I like front covers and blurbs on books - I miss that on the Kindle. I also like to flick back and forth to remind myself of stuff and I can't do that electronically.

Lisa- hope today is a better day for you.

Roxie - nice workout. Are you doing all the clearing by yourself or is DH helping?

Did TB premix 3 (legs, bit of floorwork and abs). Felt good. I did one set of triceps dips but that felt like enough on my hand. Still being careful but it is definitely getting better.
Work still quiet so I've just been out for lunch. Had a big bowl of noodle soup, dumplings and a beer!
Quiet weekend planned, housework, shopping, TV.
 
LIC Cardio PM today, even that didn't really cheer me up too much. Only 1/2 day working today so that should help. Gotta get out and get some grocery shopping done because we will be getting COLD and SNOW this weekend, so I'll be staying in all bundled up and warm and cozy.

Ronne, Tricep dips are about as bad a pushups. Good to not push yourself. Oh, and I've been doing only 1 riser.

Roxie, I dislike funerals, memorials, you name it. I felt bad I didn't go to my neighbors (had it at a mexican restaurant...weird). I'm too much like my Mom, both parents had planned their funeral arrangements. Mom wanted nothing, but we ended up having something because my sister needed one. I did not like showing my grief in front of the world. My Dad went all out...that was his style.

Mary, the only thing I miss about a book is seeing how much further to the end of the chapter. I know some e-readers tell you now, but I see no reason to upgrade for that. I'm still on my first generation nook. I do like having a selection at my fingertips.
 
Hi everyone! Today did C&W, another old one! It was fun! Lisa, I hope today is better. Sometimes, at least I do!, go thru cycles when I don't know why I'm down and I have no reason to be. I guess melancholy is the word I'm looking for. Maybe hibernating this weekend will help? Ronne, I LOVE dumpling soup! And beer! Ha! Roxie, will think of you tomorrow. Jody, you studying? Murphy, you out there? Well, have to get to lunch with my students, last day! Then I need to organize everthing for the trip and for the kids! Have a great Friday! Mary
 
Actually I think it's just the job. There is no challenge, it's boring, I'd much rather be playing all day :) Oh, if only I was young I'd pick another profession to be in.....
 
Good Morning,

I so wanted to get up and workout this morning because I know I will not be able to tonite but I am having problems sleeping again and I know its because of stress. Dh is coming home to get me and then we are going back to Emporia where he works and stay over night so when he is done we can head to the funeral and we will just get there in time.

Lisa-I hope you kick the blues soon. We are suppose to get snow here on Sunday but I will believe it when I see it.

Ronne-good job listening to your hand. I still read books the Kindle is nice to bring to work with me and on trips.

Mary-have fun getting ready for your trip.
 
Hi all. Sorry I have been absent, they are paying more attention to our online time at work so I cannot get keep in touch as much. If I fool around in the morning I don't have time to touch base before getting ready for work. Anyway, I did 4DS KB, still one of my favorites. I did all of it, I am so proud of myself! Waves to all. Roxie - sorry to hear about your DH's uncle.

Murphy
 
Hi girls! Today did MMA KB, we leave Tuesday, so I will be able to get in 2 more workouts. Lisa, DM? That's a hard one! Murphy, did you do the leg part too? I should really use that series more! Jody, ope you are ok! Ronne, enjoying your weekend? Roxie, hope today went ok. My folks are coming for dinner tomorrow night, I want to get the lasagna together today. Have a good day! Mary
 
Good Evening,

The funeral was sad they let the grandkids tell what their special memories were and it made everyone cry then we went to the cemetary and it was so cold now I am getting laundry done and probably head to bed shortly didn't sleep in the motel and DH is pissing me off.

Lisa-DM I am impressed.

Mary-sounds like you are busy again.

Murphy-sucks when they do that.
